I am not sure if this is doubled or not. The area in question is one of the stems with an acorn. Thanks for your help.

If it were a doubled die, then it would be raised in that area and not flat and shelf like. MD

Thanks. This one was strange, depending upon the angle it looked raised, but then flat another way. I can see it is flat and shelf like though.

Hey listen . After thorough research on Double Dies lve learned not to ever automatically believe everything that you read in the comments because it's not always that simple and not always accurate . Infact . Theres never nothing wrong with getting A second opinion . Because the only way to really tell if the doubling is either Flat or raised on a coin of that condition is by a high powered magnifier or microscope ... In otherwords from the photos that you've shared no one on here can actually tell you if the image is raised or shelf like so Do not get rid of your coin just yet do your homework first because I had the same exact problem only to find out later that my coin was a DD .

hardfinds80 glad to see you're back but as you were told before any of the responses given by coop you can take them to the bank. if you're hearth because on your coin you were told by many that it wasn't what you want it so be it. MS70Error5 looks to me you're been here long enough and you know who to trust.

I have been to that road and looking at what I believed to be doubled die coins, spread cause by die shift or Die Deterioration can lead many beginner to believe its a doubled die.

The height is different from how much bounce happens during strike. So it can be shallow or deep on a device.
